Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1955, the property is significantly dated with popcorn ceilings and older interior finishes. While the listing notes solid mechanicals and financeability, the home requires cosmetic modernization and minor repairs to meet current market standards.
The property features solid structural bones and updated mechanicals, making it eligible for traditional financing, which is a significant advantage for first-time buyers using FHA or VA loans.
Situated in a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood with excellent proximity to Whittwood Town Center and major freeways, offering both convenience and a high quality of life.
As a well-maintained entry-level home, it provides a perfect canvas for cosmetic upgrades, allowing owners to build immediate sweat equity in a desirable Whittier market.
The home requires aesthetic improvements such as new paint and personal touches, which may necessitate an additional upfront budget for renovations.
With three bedrooms but only one bathroom, the layout may be restrictive for growing families and could impact long-term resale appeal compared to homes with multiple baths.

A comfortable floor plan, generous living space, and a spacious backyard offer the perfect canvas to make it your own. Solid bones and great mechanicals mean traditional financing is welcome.
